  If we conclude that the inventory as it is today is correct, perhaps we should
add a note to stop anyone else submitting a similar change-request?

Instructions don't always show the part variants that are actually included
in a set. So without other evidence I am going to reject this change request.

Many sets have been found with both types of doors and it is possible that this
is one of those sets, so 32bc01 may be added if evidence is found that it actually
came in this set.

My childhood set came with
 
Part No: 33bc01  Name: Door 1 x 2 x 3 Hinge on Right with Trans-Clear Glass
* 
33bc01 Door 1 x 2 x 3 Hinge on Right with Trans-Clear Glass
Parts: Door
I've checked.

According to BL, the color of the topping of
 
Part No: 93568pb001  Name: Pie with White Cream Filling Pattern
* 
93568pb001 Pie with White Cream Filling Pattern
Parts: Food & Drink
is "white". Is this
just a loose color description or was it meant to indicate the correct color?
Because it's not white. It's more like Very Light Bluish Gray. Please
see attached picture of part with white, VLBG (shield), LBG and LG.

I'm about to create the Danish/Norwegian version of [G=G31314] in the BL
catalogue.

But I have one question: In G31314, the 14 curved and 6 straight road sections
are claimed to be identical, but the Nordic versions look different. They contain
studs on the road, and all road sections have subtle differences (see example
of two curved sections in attached image). They may be hard to differentiate
by users, so should I just create one part and maybe have a note on it that inform
of the differences, or should every different part be created?

These have now been added to the set inventory.

Now awaiting approval of minifig and set inventories and job should be done.

Approx. 6 hours of unpaid work leaving me with a used set. I think that'll
be my first and last inventory. But thanks for letting me try it out.

Yes

Inventory work should be complete now except for two stickered parts that are
still pending.

I do think I'm capable of creating the parts/minifigs/inventory correctly,
but as previously stated, I don't know what names I should use for the parts
and minifigs, and I can't supply correct weight of all of them, neither can
I supply professional photos. I need help with that.

BTW, I found the hat. It's part 17349 (previously only been released with
print, e.g.
 
Part No: 17349pb01  Name: Minifigure, Headgear Hat, Cone Drooping, Wizard with Silver Stars and Gold Crescent Moon Pattern
* 
17349pb01 Minifigure, Headgear Hat, Cone Drooping, Wizard with Silver Stars and Gold Crescent Moon Pattern

).

Here's the right other side of Peter Pettigrew's head (the first two

Hello

After having been on BL for a couple of years, both as a buyer and seller and
submitter to the catalog, I wanted to take up the challenge of making an inventory
for a set, and I chose set
 
Set No: 75965  Name: The Rise of Voldemort
* 
75965-1 (Inv) The Rise of Voldemort
157 Parts, 6 Minifigures, 2019
Sets: Harry Potter: Goblet of Fire
because I just bought it. At this point,
I have only submitted the sticker sheet to the catalog, and I'm stuck with
10 parts that seem to be new (their PCCs don't exist on BrickLink and I can't
find them through search). I have a few questions for the upcoming work.

1) Should I leave it to a professional to do all this work? I'm thinking
that I can't provide professional pictures of the new parts and I can't
name the remaining parts or supply weight for them.

2) If the answer to 1) is "no", could someone please help me identify the remaining
10 parts or provide me with good names for the parts so I can add them to the
catalog? What do I do with the weight of the parts? I don't have a weight
with the precision needed.

Attached are pictures of the 10 new parts.

/Jan

I don't know if we should have parts in the catalog with XXX content in them.


Apparently they were accepted into the catalogue before an admin could change
them.

/Jan

Someone fixed it.

Set No: 928  Name: Galaxy Explorer

928-1 (Inv) Galaxy Explorer
318 Parts, 4 Minifigures, 1979

as a child, I remember clearly it had one plate of wrong
size in it (different from the one shown in the instructions), and from my recollection
it was the plate that held the control patterned slopes (it should be a 4 x 10
plate). The plate in my set was either 2 studs too long or too short, but I don't
remember which. Unfortunately, I switched the plate to a correct one long time
ago, so I can't prove anything about this today.

Does anyone else remember something like this?

Could you have had 497?

No, my instructions say 928. But 497 doesn't seem to change anything with
respect to these plates.

  Does anyone else out there recall issues with Lego having off color batches on old light grays in
the past like they have trouble with now on the new light bluish grays and yellows?

I have seen 2 different shades of Light Gray and not all of it is yellowing or
age but could be. Occasionally if I have a lot of the off color I will list
with a note but unless it is a piece I want I usually put them in the donate
pile.

I'm having the same problem. I most often see this issue with part
